The fix is definitely low level. But the issue is a design that landed in GTK+ some years ago (possibly as many as 10 years ago), and is fundamentally problematic. Replacing a call to some variant of poll() with a call into the native windowing system's own event loop is ... well, different :) > I think on bugzilla it would have more chances to be read by someone > interested to improve the quartz support in the future.

I wasn't looking so much for someone to fix it for me, but to see how much moral support I might raise :)
